Full category path (e.g.) for \mail\approved.mail

[kleinhev]

Since <%$category%> does not return the URL, is there another way to show the URL (http://...) of the category where a newly approved link has been added? <%$category_path%> or <%$category_path_with_link%> do not return anything in the emails.

I wish to add this to the "\mail\approved.mail" template, so that the category can be accessed with one click from the approval email.

As found in other mail templates, just use <%$site_url%>

<%$site_url%> is understood, but how to compose the url down to individual categories within a site, something like: <%$cat_url%> that would work for the email templates?

As found in other mail templates, just use <%$site_url%>

You would probably need to add cat_path to the file calling the mail templates, then you can use <%$site_url%>/<%$cat_path..

Does anyone know how to implement this? Some directories based on systems other than indexu have this as standard.

Try this:

<%$site_url%>/<%$category%>

I did not test it, so I am unsure how it will work.

[kleinhev]

No, this doesn't work. I also tried:

<%$site_url%>/<%$category_path%>

which doesn't work either. How can <%$category_path%> ( <%$category_path_url%> ?) passed to the email templates?

Add the variable to the corresponding PHP files.
